IT1LI4N LOVE CHARMS.

There are some pretty love charms in
Capri. To win a girls heart the lover
must steal a hair from her head and tie
it TO one of his own. So long as the
knot holds firm his love Is returned. This
resembles the charm used on the sacred
hill of Monte Vergine, near Naples.
There betrothed pilgrims fasten broom
twigs together with strip of rag, and
until the twigs part their love endures.
Rags hutter on every bush along the path
to the great sanctuary, and married
couples often return there to examine
their united twigs. Unmatched pairs
probably scorn to renew the pilgrimage.
Love-sick maids and men mix drop OF
their blood in little wine and persuade
the object Of their affections to drink it
This is an infallible love-philtre. A man
may also win a girls heart by pricking
her name upon a ig leaf and letting the
wind blow it away.

THE OLDEST VIRGINIA CHURCH.
The Restoration Of the Ancient EdiJice
at Smithfeid.

The movement to restore the "Old
Brick Church" at Smithfeld, Va, which
is supposed to be the oldest church in
Virginia, has been successful, and the res
toration' is nearly complete. This church
was built in 1852, and was occupied con-
tinuously for two centuries. Among
other contributions to the restoration were
two thousand bricks which had formed
the walls of the "Bay Church" which
though of later date, was associated with
the ''Old Brick Church" These bricks
have passed through several hands since
they were torn from the bay Church" :"
having served most Of their time in the
walls of farmers kitchen, while part of
them stood for while as the walls of a
burying ground. Now they strengthen
the walls of the restored "Old Brick
Church" The roofs just put on the re-
stored edifce are the fourth set. The
first, put on in 1852, remained on till
1916 years in 1871 the second set
was put on and remained until about 1921
(eighty-four years., when these new ones
were substituted for them. These re-
NAMED till the present summer. when
they were removed, the church roof hav-
ing fallen in. There will be twenty-one
stained-glass memorial windows in the
church.
OF the side windows in the church, one
will be memorial of the Indian Princess
Pocahontas, he first fruits Of the gospel
in Virginia. The window Immediately
opposite this one, on the north side, will
be memorial of the Rev. Robert Hunt,
the apostle from Christian England to
heather Virginia and the one immedi-
ateIy west of his will he in memory of
Col. Josiah Parker, one of the Earl Of
Macclesfeld Parkers, member Of Wash
ing's staff, the first member Of Congress
from that district.
The aisles contain the remains of sew
eral people, one of whom was buried
there 900 years ago. To the number al
ready there buried the remains of Gail
Joseph Bridger, son of the builder Of the
church, who died in 1868, and now lies
in the open field, under his tomb, two
miles away, will be added and over them
all slabs will be placed, to be, at once,
their memoria and sections Of the pave
ments of the aises.

TIE BALLAD OF THE COLo2s.
THOMAS DUNN ENGLISH IN HAErER's BAzAR

THOMAS DUNN ENGLISH IN HARFER's BAzAE.
4 gentleman of courtly air,
OF old Virginia he;
A damsel from New Jersey State.
OF matchless beauty she;
They met as fierce antagonists
The reason why, they say,
Her eyes were of the Federal blue,
And his, Confederate gray.
They entered on fierce campaign,
And when the fight began,
1t seemed as though the strategy
Had no determined plan.
Each watched the others movements well
While standing there at bay
One struggling for the Federal blue,
One for Confederate gray
We all looked on with anxious eyes
To see their forces move,
And none could tell which combatant
At last would victor prove.
They marched and countermarched with skill
Avoiding well the fray
Here lines were seen of Federal blue.
And there, Confederate gray.
At last he moved his force in mass,
And sent her summons there,
That she should straight captuate
Upon conditions fair.
AS YOU march 'orth the flags may fly,
The drums and bugles play;
But yield those eyes of Federal blue
To the Confederate gray
''You are the foe, she answer sent,
ITO maidens such as |
III face you with dauntless heart,
And conquer you or die.
A token of the sure result
The vaulted skies display:
For there above is Federal blue.
Below, Confederate gray.
Sharp. shooting on each flank began
And mid manUuyres free,
The rattle of the small talk with
Big guns of repartee.
Mixed with the deadly glance OF eyes,
Amid the proud array,
There met in arms the Federal blue
And the Confederate gray.
Exhausted by the fight at length,
They called a truce to rest;
When 10 another force appeared
Upon mountain crest
And as it came the mountain down
Amid the trumpet's bray,
Uncertain stood the Federal blue
And the Confederate gray.
A corps Of stout free lances these
Who poured upon the field,
Field Marshal Cupid in command,
Why swore they both must yield;
That both should conquer; both divide
The honors of the day,
And proudly with the Federal blue
March the Confederate gray.
His troops were fresh and theirs were Worn
What could they but agree
That both should he the conquerors,
And botb ehoul1 cauttVqs bp p
So they presented arms, because
Dan Cupid held the sway,
And Joined in peace the Federal blue
With the Confederate gray.
Twelve years have fed. passed to-day
The fort they built, and saw
4 sight to strike bachelor
With spirit-thrilling awe.
Deployed corps of infantry,
But less for drill than play;
And some had eyes Of Federal blue,
And some Confederate gray.

SOUTHERN INDUSTRIAL AoTIVITK.

There is no danger Of an oyergrowth
of industrial business at the South. If
the iron States of the South were to man
ufacture one-tenlh of the iron goods con-
sumed here at home, there would be room
for ten times the number Of forges and
factories. If the rope, cord and twlne
sold bv Mobile merchants were all man
ufactured in Mobile, there would be con-
slant occupation for several large facto-
ries. And so, if they were to manufac-
ture all the cotton goods, prints, jeans
and hosiery sold by their wholesale dry
goods iobbers, dozen frst-class factories
would be needed, and ten thousand pop
ulation be added to the city. If all the
agricultural implements sold by the hard
ware merchants of that city were made at
home, a dozen factories would find cor
slant employment. There is no posslbll-
ity that in the next twenty years, even
should the present rate Of progress con-
tinue, there will be too many industrial
enterprises at The South. 1t must be
borne in mind that the South IS at pres
ent the North and West. All roads from
the South lead to New York, to carry
cotton and borrow money, or to Chicago
to carry nothing and buy meat and corn.
The few steps now being made toward
selfsupport at the South by the erection
Of industrial works are nothing in view
of our need for such works.
